It's sad that tu has a better chance at going to the tournament than we do after how great we started

Weren't they pre-season Top 10?

Yeah, but everyone knows they weren't really deserving of it -- there was just a conspiracy by the AP voters to vote them real high just to watch them fail.

tu is better than us. Have no doubt they'd beat us with or without House. We would make a game of it and lose like we do against everyone with a pulse.

While we technically control our destiny, there's other teams to get behind.

For today, Monday, that team is Gonzaga. The WCC is to the semis and we need Gonzaga to roll, and BYU to look bad. Cougars currently in just ahead of us according to Lunardi.

Pepperdine (18-12) vs Gonzaga (30-2) 8:00pm
Portland (17-14) vs BYU (24-8) 10:30pm

BYU losing to Portland, and then Gonzaga beating Portland in the final, would help us out a bit.

Wofford officially makes the Southern a 1 bid league (not that there was that much doubt)

BYU will be under 40 RPI in two days.

Yup we really needed them to lose on Saturday to Santa Clara and they almost did. Looks like the WCC will most likely be a 2 bid league regardless of tomorrow's result.

Palm still has us last 4 in over BYU last 4 out even after their win last night.

Today we are rooting for New Mexico, Arizona St, Kansas St, and Tech. Anybody else I am missing?

Looks right to me. We also want Virginia Tech to beat Miami. Miami is in the first 4 out in both CBS and ESPN bracketology. Also, Stanford is close enough to the bubble that we should root for Washington.

Do we root for Auburn or Miss State? What about Mizzou vs South Carolina?

I don't know if it makes a whit's worth of difference, but Auburn and South Carolina have the higher RPIs, relatively speaking, so hopefully they'll win on Suckbutt Wednesday.

I think we matchup much better with Auburn given the Tigers' lack of size and rebounding. I'll be pulling for AU.

On the other side, it's largely trivial, but since we have two wins over Mizzou and one over USCe, I think a Mizzou win is ever so slightly better RPI wise.

Why Kansas st?

I'm guessing because it helps our opponents-records component. Don't want them working their way on the bubble though

KSU has no chance of making the field unless they win the B12 tourney.

Right. Should've said "Kennedied up our game". Like when Gottlieb used to make fun of A&M for choking when it was Sherman that was blowing it.

Updated after a slow Mon-Wed. Things heat up on Thurs. For those wondering who to root for....remember this is a key section of each BW update at the bottom of the update.

Things went about as bad as they could go for us yesterday.

Ok fellow Ags, sorry about the Aggied up comment regarding Arizona St. The Alabama loss is still fresh on my mind. Time to move forward and win a few games instead of counting on others to get us in.

Illinois down 17 at half to Michigan. This would officially pop their bubble

So far so good today, Illinois is done.

While at the half in Nashville....a look at other games around the country...


Illinois loses to Michigan and they are done
Boise St. is in the midst of avoiding a bad loss to AF
Old Dominion in a dog fight with MTSU down 5 at the half in what would be a very damaging loss
Iowa loses to Penn St in a surprising result but they should be fine.

Ya that pretty much sucks....I'll continue tracking it and post periodic updates but ya this won't be anywhere as fun as it has been.
